A compact system with rounded shapes: straight, corner, curved or island.
The Arflex 9000 is a 1969 seating system you recognise at once: compact, rounded modules with ribbed stitching. It was designed by Tito Agnoli. Here at Mariani, official Arflex retailers in Milan and Arluno, we tell you what it costs, how it is put together, and we let you try it in our showroom.

The 9000 dates from 1969. Arflex describes it as a compact seating system with rounded shapes that lets you create many different configurations: this modularity is what makes it work in very different spaces.
The same design, Arflex says, adapts to both homes and hospitality spaces: a living room, a hotel lobby, a waiting area. The company's own photographs show it well, from corner compositions to round islands with a central backrest.
Tito Agnoli was born in Lima, Peru, in 1931 into an Italian family and moved to Italy after the war. He studied painting with Sironi, then architecture: he graduated in 1959 and worked as an assistant to Gio Ponti and Carlo De Carli.
By the early Fifties he was already working intensively in design with major Italian companies. He received several Compasso d'Oro nominations and a gold medal at Neocon in Chicago in 1986; his work is in the permanent collection of MoMA in New York. For Arflex he designed the 9000 system, the 9000 armchair and pouf.
Every 9000 element shares the same soft, rounded language, with vertical stitching drawing the surface. That is why the modules join seamlessly, in a line, at a corner or in a curve.
